Available in RoastConsole Pilot on Mac. A native Mac app for monitoring, controlling, and reviewing roasts. Connects to your machine, draws the curve, and keeps the record.
Bean temperature, environment temperature, and Rate of Rise on one live chart, with phase timings and colour-coded deviation from the target you chose.

A probe reporting a plausible number that is not tracking the way physics says it should gets flagged, and when readings stop arriving the chart says so instead of leaving a frozen number looking live.

The roast is captured locally on the Mac and synced to Cloud when the connection allows, so the curve, its events, and its notes are already in history when the day ends.
Twelve weeks · empty cells are days with no roast

Move through the views that make up live roasting dashboard.
Batches roasted, green in, roasted out, and average duration for the day sit above the planned list, with a manual-control dock along the bottom for preheat, cleaning, and cooldown once a roaster is connected.
Reference
The warnings that matter while your hands are busy.
A probe that stops tracking the way physics says it should is flagged.
When readings stop arriving, the chart says so rather than freezing.
Events can be marked audibly, so your eyes stay on the roast.
The chart redraws fast enough to read, without loading the Mac.
An event logged early or late is moved along the timeline, not re-entered.
Heater, fan and drum, or gas and air: the controls follow your equipment.
Most of it. The chart and its control strip take the main area, with a fixed readout sidebar beside it whose width you can adjust. Glanceable mode reduces everything to a few large figures when you need to read it from a distance.
Other parts of RoastConsole Pilot that touch this one, and the free calculator that answers the arithmetic behind it.
A roast you can roast again, and a shelf of benchmarks to measure against.
Every roast saved, and what they add up to over months.
From an order list to a roast list, and back again.
Every lot from intake to the roast that used it.
The cup kept with the roast that produced it.
